They started in March of last year as a probing opera tion, to test Communist securi ty and see just how far the Na tionalists coum go. 4 Enjoy a Real jg I WESTERN 1 CHRISTMAS j I'iPM GIBSON 1 PmKw SflDDLEwl iSf YvV Ml -J' im F Offers Ihe Finest yi L B0TS HATS ' A Everything ' P' j Riders and (&Zj$-'WOrk M It was small-scale stuff at citing riots to blowing up am rirct a fu, otnppiallv trained I munition dumps. sent in to do their delicate, dangerous work, That they did it well can be judged by the Communist reaction, which was loud and lengthy, claimed that the guerrillas were hirelings of American imperialism and that their inevitable fate was death, capture or desertion. The Nationalist are under standably reticent about the fate of their agents, once commit ted. They have admitted that some were killed. Some un doubtedly surrendered either willingly or unwillingly and were taken off to be shot or re-indoctrinated. Some, certainly, got safely back to Formosa for long and vital debriefings. More Agents Infiltrate At the end of 1962, the pro ject was suspended, at least as far as is known. Nationalist in telligence men pored over the information that had accumu lated. They made a thorough going evaluation. Apparently it was encouraging, for guerrilla operations were resumed in agents slipped into the main land by getting past the barbed wire and watcmowers overlook ing Hong Kong or Macao, by paddling ashore in rubber boats under cover of night, or arriv ing brazenly in junks The guerrilla warfare was in spired in part Dy intelligence reports indicating some unrest in scattered parts of the main land. One document captured from the Communists listed a total of 752 "anti-revolutionary inci dents" during 1962. Most of them were "reactionary propa ganda" cases, like chalking slo gans on walls. But 64 were more serious, ranging from in- SEEDS OF WEALTH LOS ANGELES (UPI)-Seeds worth 17 times their weight in gold are part of California's $30 million seed industry.

Looking on at right is Mrs. Wladisalny Benedyk, Maria's foster mother, who raised and cared for her since she was seven months old. (UPI) June at twice the scale as before. In the five-month period from June through last month, 912 agents had infiltrated the main- land 38 more than for the 10-month period of March December of last year. In 44 groups, they fanned out all the way from Canton in the south to Peking in the north, The Nationalists claim that for the most part they were "jubilantly received" by the people and were getting more and more cooperation. Their place In the Nationalist design for "counterattack ' could be found in Chang Kai shek's policy of an effort "70 per cent political and 30 per cent military" for recapturing the mainland. Chiang has said many times that he would need the over whelming support of the people to whip the Communist in any mainland venture. One of the guerrillas' most important military tasks is to set up a communications and espionage net. Equally impor tant is the job of certain agents in disseminating propag a n d a and discontent. They are as signed to help create the "at mosphere of rebellion" which Chiang has said is the key to a successful return. Decline Evaluation American intelligence men de cline to give for publication their evaluation of the guerrilla program. They limit themselves to saying that the operations, although very small, have been well-planned and well carried out. The U.S. military assistance advisory group (MAAG) trains an undisclosed number of Na tionalist troops in guerrilla war fare at training areas on For mosa. But the Nationalists insist that every agent they send to the mainland is trained in secret by their own people and re ceives no U.S. military assist ance. It is believed that roughly 10, 000 special agents have been trained. Chinese Supervision Some have been trained under strictly Chinese supervision on two small Island groups in the Formosa Strait, Tungyin and NEW DIMENSION Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek's un ceasing war with the Communists has taken on a new dimen sion: Nationalist guerrilla operations on the Communist- controlled mainland. This 1962 picture shows some 10,000 Nationalist soldiers going through bayonet exercises in north ern Formosa. (UPI) Wuchiu. Tungyin is 35 miles north of Nationalist-held Matsu Island. The main island is not quite two square miles in area. Like the more famous offshore islands of Quemoy and Matsu, the fortifications of the-Tung-yins are dug into formidable natural rock formations. The military buildup was done with out U.S. aid. The aid was offer ed but, in this case, declined with thanks. Wuchiu consists of two tiny islands, each about a quarter the size of Tungyin Island, and located between Quemoy and Matsu, about 18 miles off the mainland coast. Very little is known about what goes on at either group, but assuredly the purpose of the work is to create unpleasant ness for China's Communist re gime. l IF i il IE Lai m For Distinctive Gifts Big or Small ... for nittUUV Every Budget.. .
